You are presuming that the people who are downloading his pictures are actually computer savvy people. They aren't for the most part. They are just paying their 30 bucks a month for web access and figure that whats there is for them. Probably for the most part, they will have javascript enabled, since that is the default setting for their browsers. If you can force them to use javascript to view the gallery, then put a no right click script in, that would probably be sufficient for the majority of people. I've run into this a few times, and it's not worth the time it takes to do the end run, and is far less irritating than being told you need to download a flash player to view the pictures.
